Default Anyone running EBC brakes?

Hey guys. Pretty new to the thread. Have had my 12' 460 for almost a year now I love it.

The previous owner put cheap autozone brakes on it and I knew the time was coming. Anyone running EBC? seems like everything is back ordered. I was also looking at powerstop. I have the sport package with Brembos. Also if y'all have tried any other brands.

I've been running Akebono ACT on '10 AWD and they are not bad. They stop well and have very little dust. It is important to have every piece of brake hardware installed. Mine were initially missing some springs and the pads would rattle when I hit a bump on the road.

(edit) Is this ceramic coat in the picture? The paint looks awesome.

I put Green EBC on my 2010 Tundra and they were the dustiest brakes I ever had. I replaced them with Power Stop slotted and pads and they are great - still have them on the truck at about 80k since.

When I got my 460L four years ago I replaced the OEMs with PowerStop Slotted rotars and pads. That was 50K miles ago and have not had any issues and they have plenty of pad left. They also do not produce that much dust. I can not say enough good about PowerStop.

Update: I ended up going with EBC rotors and red stuff brake pads. Was more on the expensive side

I have been using them for 2 months now and they definitely bite hard and bite even harder warmed up. Compared to the previous pads ( I think the previous owner put autozone) its about 80% less brake dust. That is probably my favorite part and the primary reason I went with these

Akebono pads with OEM rotors work great together. However, Akebono does not make pads for LS460 with 3-piston calipers as far as I know.
